Manchester City vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Manchester City face another tough test on Tuesday night when they welcome last season’s Ukrainian Premier League runners-up Shakhtar Donetsk to the Etihad Stadium.

The Champions League group stage game is City's second European clash of the season afterr their emphatic 4-0 victory over Feyenoord propelled Pep Guardiola's men to the top of Group F earlier this month.

Shakhtar also enjoyed victory in their opener, beating a strong Napoli side 2-1 at home and head to England for the first time since their narrow group stage defeat to Manchester United in the 2013/14 Champions League.

City will give Benjamin Mendy a late fitness test after he was forced off in the first half of Saturday's victory over Crystal Palace.

Time and Date

The match will be shown live on BT Sport 3 on Tuesday September 26, with coverage from 19:30 BST.
